We study properties of thermal transport and quantum many-body chaos in a lattice model with $N\to\infty$ oscillators per site, coupled by strong anharmonic terms. We first consider a model with only optical phonons. We find that the…
We study the non-equilibrium dynamics of a one-dimensional complex Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev chain by directly solving for the steady state Green's functions in terms of small perturbations around their equilibrium values. The model exhibits…
We calculate the scrambling rate $\lambda_L$ and the butterfly velocity $v_B$ associated with the growth of quantum chaos for a solvable large-$N$ electron-phonon system. We study a temperature regime in which the electrical resistivity of…
We develop a general framework for studying the equilibrium and non-equilibrium properties of arbitrary networks of Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev clusters coupled to thermal baths. We proceed to apply this technique to the problem of energy transport,…
The Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model is a concrete model for non-Fermi Liquid with maximally chaotic behavior in $0+1$-$d$. In order to gain some insights into real materials in higher dimensions where fermions could hop between different…
The divergence of the heat conductivity in the thermodynamic limit is investigated in 2d-lattice models of anharmonic solids with nearest-neighbour interaction from single-well potentials. Two different numerical approaches based on…
We investigate energy propagation in a one-dimensional stub lattice in the presence of both disorder and nonlinearity. In the periodic case, the stub lattice hosts two dispersive bands separated by a flat band; however, we show that…
Phonon coherence elucidates the propagation and interaction of phonon quantum states within superlattice, unveiling the wave-like nature and collective behaviors of phonons. Taking MoSe$_2$/WSe$_2$ lateral heterostructures as a model…
An upper bound on Lyapunov exponent of a thermal many body quantum system has been conjectured recently. In this work, we attempt to achieve a physical understanding of what prevents a system from violating this bound. To this end, we…
Wavepacket transport across a nonlinear region is studied numerically at zero and finite temperatures. In contrary to the zero temperature case which demonstrates ballistic transport, finite temperature lattice vibrations suppresses the…
We study properties of chaos in generic one-dimensional nonlinear Hamiltonian lattices comprised of weakly coupled nonlinear oscillators, by numerical simulations of continuous-time systems and symplectic maps. For small coupling, the…
The Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model is a $(0+1)$-dimensional model describing Majorana fermions or complex fermions with random interactions. This model has various interesting properties such as approximate local criticality (power law correlation…
We study the dynamical and chaotic behavior of a disordered one-dimensional elastic mechanical lattice which supports translational and rotational waves. The model used in this work is motivated by the recent experimental results of B. Deng…
Analyses of thermal diffusivity data on complex insulators and on strongly correlated electron systems hosted in similar complex crystal structures suggest that quantum chaos is a good description for thermalization processes in these…
We calculate the resistivity associated with an Ising-nematic quantum critical point in the presence of disorder and acoustic phonons in the lattice model. We use the memory-matrix transport theory, which has a crucial advantage compared to…
Due to its incommensurate nature, moir\'e superlattices host not only acoustic phonons but also another type of soft collective modes called phasons. Here, we investigate the impact of electron-phason scattering on the transport properties…
We construct and analyze a lattice generalization of the Yukawa-Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model, where spinful fermions experience on-site, random, all-to-all interactions with an Einstein bosonic mode, and random intersite coherent hopping. We…
We study the thermal diffusivity $D_T$ in models of metals without quasiparticle excitations (`strange metals'). The many-body quantum chaos and transport properties of such metals can be efficiently described by a holographic…
We study scrambling, an avatar of chaos, in a weakly interacting metal in the presence of random potential disorder. It is well known that charge and heat spread via diffusion in such an interacting disordered metal. In contrast, we show…
Despite much theoretical effort, there is no complete theory of the 'strange' metal state of the high temperature superconductors, and its linear-in-temperature, $T$, resistivity. Recent experiments showing an unexpected linear-in-field,…
